Sir Mix-Tape-a-Lot

Had a good run on the iPod shuffle & thought it might make for a good mix.

Fiona Apple - To Your Love
NIN - Closer
Radiohead - Airbag
Foo Fighters - See You
Steely Dan - Black Friday
Prince - U Got The Look
Maroon 5 - Back At Your Door
Kelly Clarkson - Since U Been Gone
Beck - Ghettochip Malfunction (Hell Yes)
Common - Faithful (ft. John Legend & Bilal)
Garbage - Wicked Ways
DMB - Stay (Wasting Time)
Foo Fighters - All My Life
DJ Danger Mouse - Allure (from the Grey Album)
Lily Allen - Everything's Just Wonderful
Justin Timberlake - Cry Me A River
readysuits - Spies
Marc Cohn - Walking in Memphis
Incubus - Nebula

Seems like a pretty good mix of the different kinds of music I'm into. It also makes me think I need to keep adding to the pod... haven't gotten obsessed with it in awhile. Have been obsessing over burning DVDs for people of stuff they need to watch/listen to. (I download a lot for certain people, who shall EJG remain nameless. I also recently got the John Adams miniseries for my grandma to take home with her because she doesn't have TV at home. It is something like 8 hours long! Holy crap nuggets!

Post Script to the last post

P. to the S. I think I need to stop listening to the Grey Album. Maybe. But I've got the new iPod and it is FAAAANCYYYYYY. And I am having the most fun filling it back up again. I love having one that actually WORKS!!!! :)

The old one – was from... oh crap, I got it for xmas... when I still lived in California but before I moved away to college... and Keith was just a baby (10)... So I guess it was 7 years old? And has barely worked for the last year or two. But I've been babying it as much as possible, not wanting to blow cash on a "frivolous" item. (And still saving up to buy that new car.)

But now that I have it? I use it ALL THE DAMNED TIME. I can't imagine life without it now! At work & need to focus? Throw on the iPod. On break & walking, need to drown out the noises of the industrial sector I work in? Bring the iPod. Going to the gym & need tunes? Clearly time for iPod. Driving anywhere and the radio antenna AND CD player are both broken? IPOD IT IS! (Tape adapter. Thank GOD that still works. Knock on wood.)

Hence, therefore, vis a vis, concordantly, ergo...



I am happy with the purchase of the new pod. (The fact that it froze up on me on day THREE was worrisome, as was the 10 d-bag Apple store employees loitering around an empty store that wouldn't couldn't help me because the "genius bar" was full and could they MAKE ME AN APPOINTMENT FOR TOMORROW filled me with rage.

But that was last week and now it's almost full and hasn't frozen since then and so there you go.
